THE PRESTIGE (2006)

[other_life]

i have it. i must construct a city-wide summoning circle for my lost friend mvuent

 

[luka]

he seemed to feel trapped in his inwardness and tormented by it. but maybe i was misreading it.

 

[sus]

felt i couldnt quite get through to him, or he wanted something i couldnt provid

Its hard being put in the father role. The lacnian master. You and craner can cry about it together. Everyone wanting nebulous completions and actualizations from uou

 

[sus]

Not that mvuent would ask that, having met him he is fully actualized. Im speaking more generally

i've had lacan put in fetters. and all transphobes shot

 

[sus]

But this is also part of the role played. "I know secrets." Naturally people wonder what the secrets might be

 

[luka]

maybe he had culture shock. he was bitterly disappointed that london was beautifully hot and bright and sunny. he really likes the depressive nature of england and he felt cheated. he wanted bruised sky and rain and sulleness.

Ive never read lacan I just know some discord freaks who read lacan and always talk about Young Girl hysterics looking for daddy Masters

i'm hashing out my beef as a neo-reichian in the wrong thread sorry

 

[luka]

ive never read it either. other life can just explain it for us tho then we dont have to bother.

 

[sus]

Its very weird stuff. Ive learned a bit of it. He thought there were two kinds of people. People who dont know whether they are men or women. And people who dont know whether theyre alive or dead.

Brilliant!!! Two types!!

lacanian clinics in france did some pretty heinous psychiatric abuse esp. w transgender and autistic patients i just cba to find the source atm. zizek esp. *as* a lacanian is very hetero/cisnormative too but again im basing that on vibes

You are talking to two cis het whitemen lol

 

[sus]

Altho luke identifies as culturally black. Not in public but privately.

 

[luka]

its great all that type stuff, zodiac signs, introverts and extroverts, mesomorphs and the other ones. its all great, all of them make perfect sense. i love types. reich does that too i think?

and that is precisely why you should be wary of lacan!

 

[sus]

He messaged me once that he "had the right to use the n word" because of his upbringing in a black neighborhood. I said, thats a very gen x sentiment I understand where youre coming from but I wont tolerate it. Youve got to put your foot down sometjmes

 

[luka]

every white man that grew up in london identifies as culturally black. you cant convince us otherwise.

 

[luka]

every asian man too for that matter. bascially everyone.

 

[luka]

thats why jungle was so great.
